The document describes how to conduct an enterprise retrospective to improve performance across multiple Agile teams. The process involves identifying teams, facilitating online retrospectives using a technique called Speed Boat, categorizing impediments into themes, creating projects to address impediments, selecting projects for implementation, and sharing results with participants. The goal is to surface issues affecting multiple teams and the enterprise to identify opportunities for improvement beyond any single team.

Traditional retrospectives
focus on a single, co-located
team.
They can produce results that
improve the performance of
the team, but often fail to
address the needs of the
enterprise – the issues
affecting multiple teams or
beyond the scope of control
of any single team.
